Hello! I would like to know if it’s possible to use the website as a true onepage site: i would like the menu items to be linked to the onepage sections and not to secondary pages. How could I do this?
Hey Gassadamante
Yes, with the use of anchor links and this plugin: http://wordpress.org/plugins/page-scroll-to-id/
Cheers:)
interested in this theme, but do you offer a service where you can add special customization or coding to create an ‘infinite scroll’ option for the blog section of this theme? I would be happy to pay extra if this is possible. if it is, please send me a website or contact info so that i can email you for that once i purchase this theme.
Hey maijintheartist! Right now I’m too swamped to take on custom development but someone at Envato Studio could assist with this if you need – The infinite scroll option is also on the roadmap for the next feature release. 
Cheers!
can you send me a link or email to envato studio or whom i would talk to about that? also, if they develop the infinite scroll function for the Blog Posts, would it negatively affect or disrupt ANY future updates to the theme since it will be done by a 3rd party with code that will be outside the normal functionality of your theme?
Honestly I would now recommend waiting since it’s definitely going to make it into the next release and is only about 2 weeks away

Hello,
I looking for a way to disable the hover effect when choosing to have have a boxed style column. Could you please advice on how to do so.
Thanks,
Hey ATPHOTOSYS, add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
.col.boxed:hover, .wpb_column.boxed:hover {
top: 0!important;
box-shadow: none!important;
}
Cheers
Hi!
I recently updated to WP 3.9 and Salient 4.0.3 and now my text blocks in the Visual Composer are impossible to edit, hence I can’t edit my webpage that I’m about to release asap.
I have a ticket at Ticksy (#199939), but I think it has been bumped down in the queue due to more comments coming in. It would be great if you could take a look at it and see how I can resolve the problem.
Thank you for awesome support and awesome theme!
/ Ida
Hey Ida! Can you please add your login credentials to that ticket in a private response so I can see what’s going on? v4.0.3 should have sorted that behavior.
Cheers
Done!
Thank you
Thanks! Just responded
How do I adjust the page background color?
I changed the background to gray and the header style to dark, but the color of the page is still light.
Thanks!
Hey sildona!
Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
.container-wrap, .project-title {
background-color: #FFF!important;
}
I used this theme for my business website and I must say I am greatly impressed. It really allowed me to have a professional look online and the features are exactly what I needed. I did need to use a few of my own plugins since this theme does not put wordpress galleries into a lightbox when clicked and it does not have the particular social media widget for sidebars I was wanting.
What impresses me the most is the high level of support and patience the author has for people with dumb questions like myself. He is always willing to help and always gets back to you within a day which is great. This is a theme I would recommend to anyone.
There are some features I would like to see added however I am just a very picky customer.
If anyone is interested in seeing what this theme can do in the hands of a moderate wordpress user, please check out my site at http://jthotshotting.com
Thanks!
Hey orcawest, thanks so much for all your kind words!

Hi,
10 thumbs up for making this awesome theme. Couple of questions about the image gallery and the portfolio module:
1. Is there a way to remove the View Larger button on the “portfolio item w/ meta below style” and the “Image Gallery – Image Grid”?
2. Is there a way to disable the auto-rotate for Image Gallery – Nectar Slide?
3. Is there a way to set the display order for the portfolio category in the portfolio module?
Thanks,
J
Thanks J!
1. Add this into the custom css box in the Salient options panel:.portfolio-items .col .work-info .vert-center a:first-child {
display: none!important;
}
2. Open up the file located at: nectar/nectar-vc-addons/vc_templates/vc_gallery.php and change this segment:
data-autorotate="5500"to
data-autorotate
3. You can’t reorder the filter list itself without digging into the code, but reordering projects is easy (use this http://wordpress.org/plugins/intuitive-custom-post-order/ )
Cheers
Thank you for the quick response. It worked out great. Just one more question regarding item 1. Would it be possible for the “View Detail” button takes up the entire picture tile instead of being a confined button? See http://www.icapps.com/work/ for style & interaction example.
You’re welcome! Yes, have you considered using one of the other 3 available portfolio styles? All but the default one don’t use buttons and have the entire thumbnail as the project link
Yes I have tried all of them but I am still leaning toward the style with the meta below the image. Just wondering if there is quick way to make the entire image clickable on hover instead of just the button. While testing my site, I noticed a lot of people gets frustrated when they can’t click on the image.
Check out this ticket in regards: http://themenectar.ticksy.com/ticket/46431/search/
Thank you so much for all of your help:) You guys have been nothing but awesome:)
You’re very welcome!
Hi Such a nice theme! It works on almost all the browser, how it doesn’t work in the IE8, especially the video background in the homepage ( http://www.plutora.com/ ) and the browser just crashes. Any clue? Best Regards
Thanks plutora! I can’t replicate the crashing on my IE8 emulator – can you open a private ticket with your log in credentials here in regards? http://themenectar.ticksy.com/
Cheers
Hi, IE8 ( From Developer tools in IE10 on Windows 8 ) crashes when the site is launched. I also tried the http://themenectar.com/demo/salient-frostwave/ on IE8, it crashes the IE8 immediately when it gets launched, it works on all the browser except for IE8 and I have to get it work tomorrow on IE8, please help, thank you so much. Best Regards
Hey again,
checking it out on browserstack (http://www.browserstack.com/ ) IE8 I can’t cause this either but am looking into the superfish possible conflict mentioned
Cheers
Hi, I just update the new WP 3.9 and the salient v4.0.3 I have big problem with the theme, all my images don’t show up in the portfolio and always have loading in the home slider with a vimeo link ?
All my page page seem to be ok when i check in the code. Do you have some advice ?
http://www.transecreation.comHey TranseCreation,
Make sure you still have the portfolio page template assigned in the page attributes box for your portfolio page. If it’s already assigned, ensure you’ve done a clean update by deleting the old theme before uploading the new
Cheers
Hi,
I am trying to hide/remove the “view larger” portfolio option. I have added this in to the Custom CSS section under Salient > General Settings> Custom CSS and it isn’t working. It is saying “Element a.pp is overqualified. Just use .pp element without element name”
.portfolio-items .col .work-item .work-info a.pp { display: none!important; }
Thanks for any advice.
Hey mcurrierth,
use this:
.portfolio-items .col .work-info .vert-center a:first-child {
display: none!important;
}
Worked!
Cheers!
Is there a way to control the size height/width of the pie chart?
Hey mcurrierth,
It will expand to fill the column you’re placing it in
Cheers
I like how I can put the woocommerce my account link in the 2nd header however after clicking that link, going to the login page and logging in… how would I make the My account link to know what user is logged in and display there name instead of My Account and to add a logout button? I have seen this many time in other themes. Is it theme specific and not a function of woocommerce?
Hey mtntownmedia! It’s not a built in feature of WooCommerce, but you can accomplish that fairly easily: (the mod will take place in the header.php file)
http://docs.woothemes.com/document/display-my-account-link-in-a-template-file/Thank You Very Much. Any idea where in the header.php that code would get placed? I know its not your issue but woocommerce support and forums really are tough to get info from. I really like this theme. Thank You.
Search for this:
<?php if(has_nav_menu('secondary_nav')) { ?>
and then place it into the unordered list
Hi guys,
Any thought son why this is happening? (See the top of the page where the title overlaps with the portfolio element).
http://thegigglegroup.co.uk/portfolio/london-office/Have inspected the CSS but can’t seem to fix with more CSS. I presume there’s an error somewhere but can’t see.
Can you shed some light?
Many thanks in advance!
Ash
Hey Ash! It appears somehow you’ve inserted an analytics code into the body open tag which is breaking the functionality – http://i.imgur.com/GxUm4UT.jpg if you can remove that everything should go back to normal
Hi there again,
Ive set up 4 portfolios with siblings (General, Video, Photography & Design). When setting up the horizontal filter ive noticed that the only way to make the sub catagory’s/siblings appear is to include the parent (Video) in the selection.
The problem with this is that it means I end up with a filter navigation that has this… ALLVIDEOCORPORATEANIMATION
When all i want to see is ALLCORPORATE*ANIMATION
Ive tried NOT selecting ‘video’ but then that only displays ‘ALL’ and nothing else.
How do I make this work? Am I going about this the right way?
Regards Andy
Hey again
Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
#portfolio-filters-inline ul li, #portfolio-filters-inline ul ul {
display: inline !important;
}
(the sub items in the horizontal display are hidden by default but that will sort it )
Cheers
Hi there, bit of bad communication on my part. Sorry.
www.andypeck.co.uk
When looking at a sub page to Portfolio (Video, Design & Photography) I want to only show the siblings and not the parent. In other words I dont want to see the parent (Video) as a filter choice in the menu only the siblings (Corporate, Animation, Drama). At the moment I get everything…. ALL, VIDEO, CORPORATE, ANIMATION, DRAMA.
CORPORATE, ANIMATION, DRAMA are siblings to VIDEO.
There are 4 Portfolios at present (PORTFOLIO, VIDEO, DESIGN & PHOTOGRAPHY)
In the Portfolio – VIDEO- there are three siblings (CORPORATE, ANIMATION, DRAMA). When looking at this portfolio I dont want to see the VIDEO category only the siblings.
I hope that makes sense. Cheers Andy
Sorry to add to this issue further. In the Video page, if I only choose to show the filters CORPORATE, ANIMATION & DRAMA then nothing shows – only ‘All’ appears in the menu. The only way to make the others appear is to select VIDEO to be shown too. However, this means everything will show in the filter menu and not just the three siblings.
Cheers Andy
Unfortunately there’s no way to select just the parent item in this case with css so javascript will be needed – open up the init.js file located in the js folder and add this in after the first line:
$('#portfolio-filters-inline ul li:has("ul")').find('> a').hide();
Cheers
Hello again! I have hopefully just a quick question: I have been able to make my gallery arrange the photos “semi-masonry” style, like this: http://www.scherwitzl.com/wordpress/gallerie/ But I am able to achieve this only if I also have a masonry portfolio on the page (at the bottom you’ll find my dummy portfolio). If I remove the portfolio, it arranges them in a fixed grid like this: http://www.scherwitzl.com/wordpress/gallerie-without-portfolio/ How can I get the first style without the portfolio? Or is there a way to at least hide it?
Thank you very very much!
P.S.: super awesome theme! 
Hey mimms!
What you’re doing is kind of a hack since the gallery element is not intended to use the masonry style but by placing the masonry portfolio under it, it’s inheriting the rules. One way to keep this would be to simply hide the portfolio under it as you mentioned. To do this, simply add a class name to the row holding the portfolio such as “hidden” and then add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
.hidden {
display: none!important;
}
Cheers
Worked like a charm, thank you!
You’re welcome
I was looking at your demo page features > parallax slider and I noticed your portfolio images that slide up on hover shifting/wiggling by 1px in Firefox. This can easily be fixed by adding css -moz-backface-visibility: hidden; to the img.
Pretty theme.
Thanks varissaraptor! Good catch
How can I reduce the total height of my loooong forms? I would like to reduce the padding in each form field and reduce the vertical padding between each form field. Here is an example page on my website: http://www.guard-all.com/products/kwikbuild-plus-tension-fabric-building/
Thanks!!
Hey canook!
Add this into the Custom CSS box located in your Salient Options panel:
body input[type="text"], body textarea, body input[type="email"], body input[type="password"], body input[type="tel"], body input[type="url"], body select {
padding: 4px!important;
}
#sidebar .widget form p {
padding-bottom: 8px!important;
}
Cheers
Muchas gracias mi amigo
You’re welcome
Pre-purchase question. Is it possible to change the DATE field, with the excepert on a portfolio ajax full-screen list?
Hey vadi4ek!
Yes, you can indeed add your own custom text to display in that area instead of the date on a per-project basis.
Cheers
Is it possible to override your ajax search engine’s backend with a plugin like Relevanssi? I tried it but no go.
Hey co50, it’s probably possible but would require development in the /wp-content/themes/salient/nectar/assets/functions/ajax-search files
